I used to love it for rumours and news but now it's just driving me **** crazy. All the journalists are in a race to break things on twitter first, so we get info about things that sound imminent but in reality are nowhere near happening.

It's also ruined the draft because they announce the picks like a minute or so before they're actually made.

[Everyone] wants to be a Knick until they get what they really want.

Wake me up when the ink is wet on a New York Knick contract.

Wow so another Berger report, why does this not surprise me?

By the way I guess the media is starting to think Melo may actually be going elsewhere, and need another player to generate hits in the New York area.

First of all any decent free agent is rumoured to be joining the Knicks. You would think fans would learn that its usually BS after the Lebron fiasco but the NY media keeps reporting stuff like this to sell papers.

Deron is in the news because they say that he got Jerry Sloan fired. Hes apparently pissed off at the team so the speculation has begun.

You haven't even got Melo yet and you're already looking forward to Williams. I wish someone would drop a nuke on twitter, it's beyond annoying at this point. And what about CP3, what ever shall he do?

Is he allowed to have that as his sig? Isn't it over the limit? And Deron wants to be Chris Paul..so it's fitting.

+1 All these journalists are looking to break the story first and in the process are probably using random ass poeple as sources.

He probably does want to be a Knick, after all, he's buddies with Mike D after their stint on team USA.

Is the strategy of New York to endlessly piss everyone else off with the presumption that all the stars will go to them until we give in and give them their stars so they'll shut up?
But do you know what they call a fool, who's full of himself and jumps into the path of death because it's cool?
